December 3

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on December 3, 2008

Estonian National Movement → Estonian Patriotic Movement

The result of the debate was Delete. Ruslik (talk) 08:52, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The re-direct has a history of a hoax article. As this was not deleted, the blocked hoaxer reverts every now and again to his hoax versions, so I really recommend deleting and protecting the page. Something that one should have done earlier. Miacek (talk) 14:54, 3 December 2008 (UTC) The Estonian Patriotic Movement that this re-direct page goes at the time is indeed about a real organization (hard-line nationalist movement), which has nothing to do with the hoaxer's creation.--Miacek (talk) 14:57, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete May cause confusion, unlikely search term. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP)} 20:24, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. It is a pain in the ass having to patrol this redirect against reversion into the hoax article. Martintg (talk) 23:47, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment Estonian National Movement has actually much broader meaning, it usually refers to The Estonian Age of Awakening in the 19th century and Singing Revolution in the 20th. I'm not that sure if deleting the page actually gives us anything, it would be better to create an appropriate article in the long run. But for short term, sure I guess getting rid of it for now all together would take it away from IP socks of the known hoax and sock puppet master Bloomfield.--Termer (talk) 06:52, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate was Deleted. -- JLaTondre (talk) 12:29, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewed article was moved and I moved the PR to repair the link on the talk page. Redirect is not needed. Otto4711 (talk) 14:12, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - history is already at target. I'm surprised that that CSD G6 or G7 hasn't been applied here. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 19:02, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate was Delete. Ruslik (talk) 07:28, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Erm, we really don't need this CNR to non-content. MBisanz ^talk 04:04, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - doesn't really even make sense. Anyways, not needed. -- American Eagle (talk) 19:50, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate was Delete Ruslik (talk) 08:45, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

J-Taz → Junichi Tazawa

The result of the debate was Delete. Ruslik (talk) 08:56, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect is a non-notable (and judging by Google results, unused) nickname for a baseball player who hasn't even signed with a Major League team yet. Mosmof (talk) 01:02, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• look at the area about Tazawa 24.61.2.47 (talk) 02:17, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • So we have one instance of the nickname/shorthand. Still don't see how it's useful or notable enough to warrant a redirect. --Mosmof (talk) 22:15, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete trivial, unsourced "nickname" of not-yet-notable baseball player (I'm not even sure of the citation above comes from a reliable source). He hasn't made the team yet - or any other upper level professional team in either the U.S. or Japan. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 22:09, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

100MHz bus → Front side bus

The result of the debate was Retarget to Bus (computing). VegaDark (talk) 23:19, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It can refer to any Bus (computing) which operates at 100 MHz, thus redirecting it a specific topic (Front side bus) is confusing. The redirect is not linked to by any article and is an unlikely search term. Rilak (talk) 06:57, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget to Bus (computing). Common term in a variety of PC spec sheets, and thus a plausible search term. Nominator is correct that the term is more generic that the current target indicates, thus the recommendation to retarget to the more general topic. --Allen3 ^talk 18:28, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget per Allen3. It is generally not a good idea to redirect from general to specific. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 22:11, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
